Creedence Clearwater Revival - Green River (Official Lyric Video) REACTION

[@mvf80]

I saw John Fogarty live a couple of years ago. The man is 75 and he played for close to 3 hours. After he left the stage, nobody in the audience was leaving. We were all just screaming and cheering. After about 10 minutes, John came back out and did a 30 minute encore! Such an amazing and talented musician.

[@dbradx]

I was lucky enough to catch him about 15 years or so back and same thing, played his ass off for 2 and a half hours, then laid down a killer encore. Great band playing with him too - killer show all around.

[@mvf80]

David Bradshaw that’s amazing. Great side note is that one of the guys in his band was his son. They just kept looking at each other with huge grins. It was great to see that.

[@daveglassman4779]

Wow, he did an encore?? Holy mackerel, that's interesting; see, back in the Creedence days, John Fogerty had refused to do encores... he said it was schtick. So, I guess now he's changed his tune? (pun not intended)

[@LaineyTsang]

Was that at the Beacon in NYC, by any chance?? Because I’ve seen him there annually, and the last time, probably late 2018, what you described happened! It was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. He’s so amazing. I’m a huge fan 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️

[@mvf80]

@@LaineyTsang No it was Mohegan Sun actually. Best concert I’ve ever been to without a doubt.

[@joehearn4279]

Tell you a neat story. My wife gave me this album for my 14th birthday. I’m 65 now.

[@TheManInTheLongBlackCoat]

That is a neat story. Not everyone has a wife at 14.

CCR is one of my all time Favorites. Johns voice is amazing. I would recommend listening to : proud mary, fortunate son, bad moon rising, i put a spell on you

[@clutchpedalreturnsprg7710]

... and " Suzy Q " if you would like a long song.

[@fuita227]

When I first heard this song in the late 60's, it was one of the best tunes on the radio...after that, Creedence Clearwater Revival were unstoppable.

[@emcsquare5045]

His voice is just so great and versatile. They had so many great hits.

[@ar47yrr4p]

Some of my favorite CCR songs are; - Have You Ever Seen the Rain? - Fortunate Son - Bad Moon Rising - Proud Mary - Born on the Bayou - Who'll Stop the Rain And there's probably a dozen others I could list as my favorites...but you'll probably like these as well!

[@johnnorth6004]

Lodi...one of my favs

[@deannacrownover3]

CCR is one of those groups that has a song to fit every single mood you'll ever have! I have multiple CCR tracks on every single one of my playlists LOL!

[@suepringle6642]

My favorite of all of their hits...fun to dance to! CCR was the first major concert I ever went to - when I was a high school junior- in '70.

[@stephenhanft1226]

From the late 1960s to the early 1970s, CCR recorded so many great songs. My favorite songs from them are "Proud Mary" and "Have You Ever Seen The Rain."

[@adam.4487]

I grew up listening to CCR always feel good when on the radio. I have since moved on to other music and genre's as they faded away. Only hear them on goldie oldie stations if lucky. Finding them again on KZbin is fabulous! Takes me way way back. I am 72 now and rocking in my seat! Can't rock like I used to but sure would love to have blaring on my player while cleaning house. LOL Love it. Thanks. Yeah too short. Maybe can find a longer version???

[@sheripetrey1882]

"Lookin' Out my Backdoor" is a grat one!!!

[@billcole5035]

Well to the 60's! Best era for music ever!

[@Mark-iv7np]

When songs were pressed on 45 rpm records usually were 2:30 seconds. Radio stations preferred that time. Tho there's some extended play songs usually on albums.

[@juanantonioreyesgamez2741]

Maravillosa canción de unos de los grupos míticos del mundo de la música 👌👌👌👍👍👍🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸

[@tatearroyo8663]

Try their cover of “I Heard It Through The Grapevine”. Great guitar solo.

[@jethro1963]

CCR was the group that saved rock. In the late 60s when AOR ruled the airwaves with long playing tracks, in came CCR with their simple 2 minutes in and out.

[@daveglassman4779]

Green River...one of my favorite CCR songs. I love the Green River album, too. Yes, I recommend listening to the entire album. I'm sure you'd like Proud Mary and I Heard It Through the Grapevine, too (would be nice if you did a video on each of these, if you haven't already).

[@maclundqvist2944]

John Fogertys voice is a nice one :)

[@patrickconnors4602]

Understatement

[@sheripetrey1882]

I love "Centerfield" !!! Does he still tour?

[@mokhtariabengrigra1438]

Oh my i love ccr wowww mazing rock'n'roll band of all time

[@orneryokinawan4529]

i remember in the JGSDF our squad playing this song in our Japanese Huey grappling down into a green river. One of the Luitenants had a tube boombox and she played a song matching the situations we were in making training much more enjoyable. CCR and the Huey were made for each other.

[@dontherealartist]

Back in the Bay Area where they are from, where I am from back in the day we just kind of took them for granted. I appreciated them especially because they sounded like a garage band, and I was IN a garage band . . . They have (that is John Fogerty has, because CCR was ALL John Fogerty) REALLY aged well, to put it mildly.

[@katherineroberts1223]

The Green River he is singing about flows through my state of Kentucky

[@daveglassman4779]

Actually, the song here isn't speaking about a literal Green River...the title was something he'd gotten from the name of a soda syrup he saw at a soda fountain shop when he was a kid. But the part about Cody's Camp is real...that was about camping at Putah Creek in Winters, California with his family. You can read all about this in John Fogerty's book, Fortunate Son; My Life, My Music.

[@DarqJestor]

That was the first record I could afford to buy. Hearing it takes me back to days long gone, when the heat of the Sacramento delta turned my room into an oven and melted the vinyl over the bottle of Ripple that was lying underneath it (Ripple was the really cheap wine we drank back then). I thought it was great music even though I couldn’t understand most of the words. Now with subtitles I like it even more.

[@stacyvanvranken5934]

do the song lookin' out my backdoor. My kids always loved that song.

[@HaileyTheComet]

Omg I love that song so much!

[@charlesrichardson2372]

This song reminds me of my bestriend Ross. We grew up on the Colorado River in AZ. We did everything they sing about in this song. We graduated together, he left for college and I joined the Army. 15 years later, we moved back to the same town and still go down to the River. Love from Lake Havasu City 🤙🤙

[@ghtsw11]

Yet another great riff from CCR plus the great, very evocative line "Barefoot girls dancin' in the moonlight".

[@2dashville]

A slow groove you gotta hear by them is, Long as I Can See the Light. It's got a lot of soul and a smooth sax solo.

[@custardflan]

This is the song that acquainted me with Creedance.

[@Xx-xd3zo]

Such a great band. Voice, drums, bass, guitar...all of it. "Run Through the Jungle" is my fave. Great choice - great vid! Sub'd!

[@jamesdignanmusic2765]

Great raw southern rock. Many of their songs are classics - try "Proud Mary" or "Born on the Bayou". And if you like CCR, you might like Steve Earle, too.

[@theeaglesend3963]

The workin band. CCR was to busy laying down tracks to get into trouble! Great band, one of my favorites!

[@sheripetrey1882]

I went ans saw a cover band called "Revival"; they were great!!! People of all ages from all over came to see them!!!! It was such a blast, would've love to see CCR. but wasn't old enough to get to a concert when I first got turned onto them!!!!

Screamin' Jay Hawkins released I Put a Spell On You first, and it's his song, if only because CCR's version is so close to his anyway. But true about Proud Mary and Grapevine.
